APPARATUS, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR FACILITATING STORAGE MANAGEMENT

摘要

An apparatus, system, and method are provided for facilitating storage management through organization of storage resources. The apparatus includes a configuration module that configures a first logical entity and a second logical entity to interact with each other in a peer-to-peer domain such that each logical entity mirrors operations of, and is in direct communication with, the other logical entity. An information module exposes local resources of the first logical entity and local resources of the second logical entity to a management node such that the local resources are available as target resources of a management command from the management node. An address module selectively addresses a management command from the management node towards a local resource of the first logical entity and/or a local resource of the second logical entity as determined by the type of management command.
